Tokamaks with large pressure gradients (alpha(max)) formed in regions of weak magnetic shear are shown to be susceptible to novel, low-n, global, kinetic, electromagnetic modes with a toroidal mode number n in the range 2
This thesis reports results on magnetic properties of supported cobalt nanostructures. The nanostructures were grown on single crystal metal surface by Molecular Beam Epitaxy in an Ultra High Vacuum chamber. Our experimental setup is based on two in situ m ...
This thesis reports on the design and construction of a novel experimental setup for the study of surface magnetic systems. This setup consists of a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) designed for ultra high vacuum (UHV) operating at T ≲ 1 K and str ...
The aim of this thesis is the study of the simulation of electrically large structures and the application of the results to automotive Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). The theoretical and experimental work carried out has led to the development of com ...
We present a new, parallel version of the numerical electromagnetics code (NEC). The parallelization is based on a bidimensional block-cyclic distribution of matrices on a rectangular processor grid, assuring a theoretically optimal load balance among the ...
We have studied the evolution of the magnetic properties of monolayer-high cobalt islands on a Pt(111) surface as function of their exposure to oxygen. We observe a sequential quenching of magnetic anisotropy and magnetic moment. For minute exposures to ox ...
This paper presents results from numerical modelling of BSCCO conductors performed with finite element method software. The AC losses are calculated and compared for conductors of different geometry and aspect ratio – an elliptical tape with anisotropic Jc ...
The Hamiltonian formulation of the guiding centre drift orbits for three-dimensional (3D) toroidal configurations with general time-dependent electric and magnetic field structures has been extended to cover relativistic particles. For static 3D magnetic f ...
A rapid algorithm for tomographic inversion is presented that allows post-discharge reconstruction of the soft x-ray (SXR) emissivity evolution in the Tokamak a configuration variable (TCV). Simultaneously, it determines the centre of gravity of the emissi ...
Mono and multifilamentary HTS tapes exhibit non-negligible AC loss in self-field and considerably higher losses in the presence of external magnetic field. The effect of the conductor’s geometry on the AC loss has been investigated in this paper. The nonli ...
